Chronic kidney disease is the progressive loss of kidney function over months or years. The significant increase in new cases of chronic kidney disease is in line with the increasing number of patients undergoing hemodialysis as kidney replacement therapy in an effort to survive. Comorbid cardiovascular disease is a major risk factor for morbidity and mortality with chronic kidney disease. The study was conducted to determine the survival of hemodialysis patients in the group with comorbid cardiovascular disease and the group without comorbid cardiovascular disease. This study used a retrospective cohort design. The location of this study was conducted at Persahabatan Central Public Hospital, DKI Jakarta, and used secondary data from the hospital information system data from 2015 to 2019. The variables significantly related to the survival of patients undergoing hemodialysis with comorbid cardiovascular disease were age, complications of anemia, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension. The age variable has a p-value of 0.029 with an HR of 1.54 (95% CI OR 1.043-2.262). The anemia variable has a p-value of 0.013 with an HR of 1.60 (95% CI 1.117-2.515). The diabetes mellitus variable has a p-value of 0.000 with HR2.71 (95% CI 1.780-4.11). The hypertension variable has a p-value of 0.004 with HR1.79 (95% CI 1.208-2.646). In conclusion, patients undergoing hemodialysis with comorbid cardiovascular disease have a risk of death of 0.76 times compared to patients undergoing hemodialysis with the comorbid non-cardiovascular disease. This study's internal validity was not good due to selection bias and non-differential misclassification information bias. Thus, the results of this study cannot be generalized.

Background: Dyslipidemia is very much common in chronic kidney disease patients and is responsible for cardiovascular disease (CKD) which is most common cause of mortality in them. So, it is necessary to study the lipid prole in CKD patients to prevent morbidity and mortality. Methods: Subjects each of 50 in number are grouped into healthy controls (group-1), CKD patients without hemodialysis (group-2), CKD patients with hemodialysis (group-3). After fasting of 12 hours, lipid prole is assessed in all cases. Results: In this study, there is increase in Total cholesterol (TC), Low Density lipoprotein (LDL), very Low-Density lipoprotein (VLDL) and Triglycerides (TG) and decrease in High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) in all CKD patients compared to healthy controls (p-value for each parameter <0.001). There is increase in TC, TG and VLDL in diabetic CKD patients compare to non-diabetic CKD patients and p-value for each parameter is <0.05. It was found that TG and VLDL increase and HDL decrease in group-3 compare to group-2 is statistically signicant (p-value for each <0.05) and no signicant variation in TC and LDL in these groups. Conclusions: Present study demonstrated that there is dyslipidemia in CKD patients irrespective of mode of management, but the derangement is much more common and signicant in CKD with hemodialysis group and they are at risk of cardiovascular disease. It is better to start lipid lowering drugs which decreases disease progression and dyslipidemia.

Background: In sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), the trend in the number of patients admitted for maintenance hemodialysis is on the rise. The identification of risk factors for chronic kidney disease (CKD) ensures adequate primary and secondary preventive measures geared at reducing the burden of CKD in low-resource settings. A family history of CKD is an established risk factor for CKD in high-income countries. However, data on family predisposition to CKD is scarce in the literature on SSA. Objective: The current study aimed to determine the prevalence and risk factors of CKD in family relatives of a Cameroonian population of hemodialysis patients (HDP) followed-up in a major hemodialysis referral center in Cameroon. Methods: The current cross-sectional study was conducted over four months on a consecutive sample of first-degree family relatives of end-stage renal disease patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis at the hemodialysis unit of the General Hospital of Yaoundé. For each participating family relative, socio-demographic characteristics, clinical data, and biological data including fasting blood glucose, proteinuria, and serum creatinine were collected. Results: A total of 82 first-degree family relatives of HDP were recruited. The prevalence of CKD among the participants was 15.8%. The main identified risk factors for CKD were age (P = 0.0015), female gender (P = 0.0357), hypertension (P = 0.0004), regular intake of herbal remedies (P = 0.0214), and diabetes mellitus (P = 0.0019). Conclusion: Overall, the current findings suggest an urgent need for population education, routine screening of CKD, and the identification of risk factors in first-degree family relatives of HDP in Cameroon.

We aimed to investigate the prescribing trend of antirheumatic drugs and assess the risk of cardiovascular disease in patients with rheumatoid arthritis in Taiwan. This study was a retrospective cohort study, conducted based on the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. The study subjects were 15,366 new rheumatoid arthritis patients from 2003 to 2010. To avoid selection bias, we applied propensity score matching to obtain general patients, as the control group. Cox proportional hazard model was used to evaluate the risk of cardiovascular disease in rheumatoid arthritis patients. The most common prescriptions of rheumatoid arthritis were nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. After controlling for related variables, rheumatoid arthritis patients had a higher risk of cardiovascular disease than general patients (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] = 1.31; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.23-1.39). Age was the most significantly associated risk factor with the cardiovascular disease. Other observed risk factors for cardiovascular disease included hypertension (aHR = 1.57, 95% CI: 1.48-1.65), diabetes mellitus (aHR = 1.47, 95% CI: 1.38-1.57), and chronic kidney disease (aHR = 1.48, 95% CI: 1.31-1.66). Patients with rheumatoid arthritis indeed had a higher risk of incident cardiovascular diseases. Besides, age, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and chronic kidney disease were also associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease.

Patients with Stage 5 chronic kidney disease who are on hemodialysis (HD) remain in a chronic inflammatory state, characterized by the accumulation of uremic toxins that induce endothelial damage and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Our aim was to examine microvesicles (MVs), monocyte subpopulations, and angiopoietins (Ang) to identify prognostic markers in HD patients with or without diabetes mellitus (DM). A total of 160 prevalent HD patients from 10 centers across Spain were obtained from the Biobank of the Nephrology Renal Network (Madrid, Spain): 80 patients with DM and 80 patients without DM who were matched for clinical and demographic criteria. MVs from plasma and several monocyte subpopulations (CD142+/CD16+, CD14+/CD162+) were analyzed by flow cytometry, and the plasma concentrations of Ang1 and Ang2 were quantified by ELISA. Data on CVD were gathered over the 5.5 yr after these samples were obtained. MV level, monocyte subpopulations (CD14+/CD162+ and CD142+/CD16+), and Ang2-to-Ang1 ratios increased in HD patients with DM compared with non-DM patients. Moreover, MV level above the median (264 MVs/µl) was associated independently with greater mortality. MVs, monocyte subpopulations, and Ang2-to-Ang1 ratio can be used as predictors for CVD. In addition, MV level has a potential predictive value in the prevention of CVD in HD patients. These parameters undergo more extensive changes in patients with DM.

Obesity prevails worldwide to an increasing effect. For example, up to 42% of American adults are considered obese. Obese individuals are prone to a variety of complications of metabolic disorders including diabetes mellitus, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and chronic kidney disease. Recent meta-analyses of clinical studies in patient cohorts in the ongoing coronavirus-disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic indicate that the presence of obesity and relevant disorders is linked to a more severe prognosis of COVID-19. Given the significance of obesity in COVID-19 progression, we provide a review of host metabolic and immune responses in the immunometabolic dysregulation exaggerated by obesity and the viral infection that develops into a severe course of COVID-19. Moreover, sequela studies of individuals 6 months after having COVID-19 show a higher risk of metabolic comorbidities including obesity, diabetes, and kidney disease. These collectively implicate an inter-systemic dimension to understanding the association between obesity and COVID-19 and suggest an interdisciplinary intervention for relief of obesity-COVID-19 complications beyond the phase of acute infection.

Chronic kidney disease is characterized by a decrease in glomerular filtration rate and lasts over 3 months. Meanwhile, patient perspectives include patient compliance in treatment and care programs. Vitamin B combination plays a role in reducing the risk of mortality for cardiovascular disease. This study aims in measuring perspective on patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis to intravenous vitamin B injection. This is a cohort retrospective study of patients on dialysis that were injected with intravenous vitamin B two times a week after dialysis. The subjects studied were chronic kidney disease patients who underwent hemodialysis at Bethesda Hospital Yogyakarta and Panti Rapih Hospital Yogyakarta, Indonesia. This study involved 58 patients, comprising 38 male (65.5%) and 20 females (34.5%). Total 41 patients (70.7%) with age under 60 years. The most common comorbidities were hypertension (86.2%), diabetes mellitus (25.9%), and cardiovascular disease (20.7%). Patients' perspectives on improvement of fatigue symptoms are higher in patients with hypertension comorbidity (88.9%), sleep quality higher in diabetes mellitus comorbidity (80%), daily activity higher in patients with other comorbidity (84.6%) and mood higher in other comorbidity (88.9%). Overall, most of the patients were satisfied with the treatment (98.3%), satisfied that it reduced fatigue (96.6%), said no side effects appeared (91.4%), were confident in the treatment (94.8%), considered it resulted in greater benefit than costs (84.5%). Patients' perspectives in the treatment of intravenous vitamin B combination injections for chronic dialysis patients have satisfactory treatment quality.
